Making... A Difference 2022
The power of transport orientation design is bringing different modes of
transportation together to activate a space. The transport industry
holds a prominent place in the South African economy, positively
contributing to the fiscus, as well as acting as a change agent in
alleviating socio-economic ills by creating employment and thereby
alleviating poverty. The objective of the internal design of a transport
terminal is to minimise the disorientation and confusion of passengers
as they arrive at the terminal and aim to move towards the destination
without undue loss of time. A planning and design strategy known as
transit-orientation design (TOD) aims to encourage compact, mixed-use,
pedestrian- and bicycle-friendly urban development that is tightly
integrated with mass transit by concentrating employment, housing,
services, and amenities near public transportation hubs.
